UAV shot down over Afghanistan

There’s talk of at least one, maybe two UAVs downed over Afghanistan. Does anybody know the type? On Dutch television they keep showing images of Predators, but I don’t think that’s the one (where would it have been based??). A ship based UAV seems most likely to me now, that would mean Pioneers. Since those new VTOL UAVs aren’t operational yet.

Pioneers flew from battleships during Desert Storm. Those aren’t around anymore. Does anybody know the current launch platform for Pioneers (cruisers, destroyers, amphibs??).

Any other comments?

Best regards,

Ference.
